The microstructure and dielectric behavior of lead-calcium titanate (P
b0.5Ca0.5)TiO3 ceramics were investigated. Three types of ordering-1/2
{111}, 1/2{110} and 1/2{100} are found to be coexisted in (Pb0.5Ca0.5)
TiO3 and the ordering degree can be intensified by long time annealing
. The effects of ordering degree on the dielectric behavior were studi
ed, which showed a less strong frequency dispersion (Delta T-o), but a
more diffused FE --> PE phase transition (delta) with the ordering de
gree increased.
